It revisits grown-up siblings Jane and Michael Banks, who now have children of their own, and are dealing with the aftermath of a family tragedy. Thankfully, Mary Poppins returns to the scene, bringing with her a whole lot of joy, comfort, and childhood magic.

Oh, and apparently Julie Andrews has already given the film her blessing — so we have complete faith.

“She had known it was in the works, then we said, ‘We’re doing it,’ and she said, ‘Oh, thank God,’” Rob Marshall, who is directing the sequel, told Entertainment Weekly. “Then we said, ‘And we’re thinking of Emily Blunt,’ and she just threw her hands up in the air and said yes. I think a lot of people feel that way about Emily’s work.”

And here we thought we couldn’t love her anymore than we already do.

“Julie was incredibly gracious, and we talked about it in a very general way but she made it clear right up front,” Marshall explained “She said, ‘This is Emily’s show, and I really want it to be Emily’s show. I don’t want it to be, ‘Oh, here comes that Mary Poppins.’ I don’t want that. I really want her to take this and run with it, because she will be brilliant.’”
